Pheasant

Description: Posted in response to a request. This was my grandmother's recipe for pheasant. We had/have a lot of hunters in the family and this was the best recipe for pheasant. I'm guessing on the serving size for 3 pheasants.

Ingredients:

• 3 pheasants, split
• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 cups sliced mushrooms
• 1 cup dry white wine
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

1. Saute pheasants in butter 10 minutes.
2. Remove from skillet and saute mushrooms in butter remaining in skillet 10 minutes Return pheasant to skillet.
3. Add wine, lemon juice, onions, salt and pepper.
4. Cover and simmer 1 hour or until tender.
5. NOTE: If oven is used- Bake at 375 degrees for about 2 hours.
